Chapter 139: Uatu the Watcher
Alexander was on his way to the blue area of the moon. He was going to have a drink with the good man Uatu. Uatu was a member of the Watchers.
The Watchers were known to be one of the oldest species in the universe and committed to observing and compiling knowledge on all aspects of the universe without any interference. This policy of non-interference was due to a well-meaning attempt by the Watchers to bestow knowledge on another race. They gave the knowledge of nuclear energy, but instead of using that knowledge to advance themselves. The race ended up destroying itself.
Learning from their mistakes, the watchers decided to just watch the Universe and never interfere with it. Even if someone was dying at their feet. They would also gather once in a while and share each other's findings to further their knowledge.
They had a humanoid build but with a slightly bigger bald head. The Watcher sent to Earth was Uatu. Uatu saw humans rise from nothing and grew fond of them. Eventually, he broke his oaths several times to protect the Earth.
He also did that very recently. Others might have not realized but Uatu helped Captain Marvel. He helped her by using his abilities to activate her powers while she was falling to Earth. Alexander knew it, so he was on his way to show some goodness.
Alexander landed on the Blue side of the moon. It was an ancient city made by an advanced species a million years ago. Skrulls had made it as a testing site. They added an equal number of Kree and Cotati here to see what they could accomplish.
The Kree made a huge Blue City and the Cotati made a complex ecosystem. Later Skrulls deemed the Cotati's work superior.
Enraged by the judgment, the Krees rebelled and killed the Skrulls and Cotati. They took the Skrulls' starship and abandoned the area. Since then, Uatu is the only one living there.
Alexander walked to the biggest and cleanliest building which he guessed was his home. He didn't even have to knock as Uatu came out.
